This Edison works split in Engineering is going to be an unmitigated disaster. Splitting up the engineering team seems to be against the principles of lean to me. Is this new ceo on a mission to sell off the commercial business or something?

Aviation is offering older salary employees a VRIP. Plan is horrible compared to other divisions or even aviation's own layoff plan. The plan saves company a ton of money of course. I am very disappointed in GE and what it believes is fair.

One should be grateful for their job (especially in these difficult and challenging times) and try to always give one hundred percent of oneself. It’s a matter of morality. Is someone on this thread complaining about not getting overtime when you... — read more

Well we all seen the layoff confirming email from John. Looks like a rough road ahead next year. This should not be a surprise to anyone. Aviation way over-hired when things were looking good. Now we pay the piper. Good luck everyone.

They are doing the next rounds of lay offs right now, all over the country. No news on how many total. And you all think GE is special, and no going to do the same?

A large percentage of GE employees recently RIF'd by GE are over the age of 50. Is there a class action lawsuit for age discrimination in process? These employees are most vulnerable to landed another job.

Looks like more layoffs this week for Wilmington and also shuffling some of us 1st shift guys back to the off shifts to even things out.

Heard today we lost the whole Leap line? Anyone else?
